What Makes Christian DISC® Different?
|
There are many personality assessments available, so why use the Christian DISC®? Many people are familiar with other assessments such as the Myers-Briggs or the Enneagram. However, users of these assessments tend to only read about their own personality, and grasp little about other personality types and how they connect and relate to one another. Who doesn't enjoy learning more about oneself and sharing our results with others? But how many of us actually listen to what makes other people unique?

Powerful for Groups and Improving Relationships
|
The Christian DISC® is different because it is effective at not only helping people understand themselves, but also in understanding others. There are four main personality types profiled by the Christian DISC® and their relation to one another is easier to apprehend as a whole.
This makes it an excellent tool to use with groups as well as individuals. For this reason, the model and theory behind the Christian DISC® has been widely used in corporate settings for decades. |

Designed for Counseling and Ministry
|
Majority of DISC-style assessments available are created for the corporate workplace and for use in corporate leadership training. The Christian DISC® is distinct because it is specifically crafted for use in faith-based counseling and ministry. The Christian DISC® can be used with individuals, couples, families, and groups. The assessment places a greater emphasis on emotional intelligence, personal relationships, and implements spiritual insight and wisdom from scripture. A certification program for counselors, pastors, coaches, and church leaders was launched in 2019.
